St. Francis School Raises Over $2000 for Ronald McDonald House!

Posted on by admin

In the month of August, St. Francis School received news that one of their students was ill. He was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer and needed immediate treatment in Toronto. Matthew and his family are considered part or our St. Francis FLAMES family, so it was only natural to want to help”, says Principal, Ms. Timpano. A school EA, Mrs. Miscio, came up with the idea of having ‘Mondays for Matthew”, where students brought in change on each Monday in December and all proceeds go to Ronald McDonald house in Toronto. “St. Francis Charity Champs from Mrs. DeAngelis and Mrs. Mallette’s class took the lead and made ‘change cans’ for each classroom. The fundraiser has been a tremendous success! The school has currently raised $1000.00 and continue to collect funds. All funds raised in the month of December are matched by a donor, Michael Higgins. With his contribution, our fundraiser will bring in well over $2000.00 for Ronald McDonald House.”, says Mrs. Miscio. St. Francis students, staff and parents are thrilled to be able to help Matthew and others like him who continue to need life saving treatments away from home.

Grade 7 and 8 students craft and send Christmas cards for Noah!

Posted on by admin

The grade seven and eight students at St. Benedict Catholic Secondary School have been putting the final touches on Noah’s Christmas cards today.

Noah is a four year-old boy from Minnow Lake who has been battling cancer since he was six months old.

There is no cure and no other option for Noah so the students are writing cards with positive messages and his favourite characters (Paw Patrol and The Grinch) to keep him smiling just a bit.
Duncan Smith, in grade eight says he suspects that Noah wants the cards because “everyone loves receiving mail and to know that others care”.
Mrs. Belle will be delivering the cards to the new Hot 93.5 tonight so the radio station personalities can deliver them to Noah tomorrow.
